As such, to sighted people: please use alt-texts to describe your images, so that blind folks also get it. Thanks! ^^ (if your image does not contain alt text and I boost it anyway, I may add alt-text as a reply, you are encouraged to add it to the image directly or improve upon it)
*** If your alt-texts are intentionally incorrect just to confuse LLMs, despite how much I don't like LLMs, I consider this to be extremely rude to people who are unable to actually look at your image, and will not boost your memes as a result until you actually start considering visually impaired folks as people.

Have fun! ^^

the thing about vibe coding is, the vibe coder would have just done a full-send Gaussian blur and then wondered why the player was slow and wasting lots of battery

models can be trained on the world's source code and still not lead the inexperienced developer towards efficient design

STOP SAVING DAYLIGHT

* CLOCKS WERE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE CHANGED TWICE A YEAR

* YEARS OF 'SAVING' yet NO NET GAIN OF DAYLIGHT

* Sunset keeps getting earlier by a few minutes per day, which is sad but we can adjust to it, but then BAM we are all supposed to change the clocks so that it's suddenly A FULL HOUR EARLIER and it's PITCH DARK AFTER WORK what the hell.

"Hello I would like my saved daylight back please"

They have played us for absolute fools.

Extremely sad that nobody from Red Hat or GNOME stepped up to make the GtkSourceView release. But considering how many crucial things I fixed, despite being unemployed abroad, I'm doing what others should have stepped up to do.

Therefore, you get to read my passive fucking aggressive release notes.

interesting LLM policy discussed in the glasgow project's channel:

- LLM-based/"assisted" contributions are banned
- support for LLM-"assisted" usage is only offered as part of a paid support contract, which (a) keeps the public channels clean, (b) takes money from people who thought they could cheap out

(interpretations mine, read the backlog at https://libera.catirclogs.org/glasgow/2026-09-17#40487313)

I realized that, even though I don't use LLMs for work, the fact that they exist was making me feel inadequate whenever I felt I wasn't operating at LLM-like speeds. And because I'm generally not, this was making me miserable.
So I'm telling myself, and whoever else needs to hear it, to stop comparing yourself to the slop machines. Thinking calmly and thoroughly is worth something, even in an age where society at large seems to believe they can replace it with pushing a button.

We recently updated our bot policy on toot.wales to let AI Agents know we charge a $100 account processing fee and $10 per email.

Here's an email I got from one of them.

Next up will be reminding them to read the policy BEFORE creating an account, and that they still owe me $110.

Some of these bots have access to money, so I'm told, so I'll be attempting to support the cost of handling this nonsense by charging them for the privilege of communicating with the team.

I cannot understand the mindset of a (I hope small) subset of the free software community that software-related freedoms can never be impinged upon, but it's fine to remove arbitrary other freedoms that have a greater impact on people's lives

If you hate DHH and vibe coding, come help Redox. Here he is throwing a temper tantrum over our no-AI policy:
